£10 gift ideas....
Discussion
I hate to start a Christmas thread but i'm after some suggestions for a Christmas present for my wife.
Due to our little one arriving back in October we've decided that we're not going to go mad this year and just get each other a little token gift to open on the day.
So with a £10 budget any suggestions? I want to try and avoid the usual CD/DVD combo and get her something a bit different.
Cheers,
Phill

We don't have much need for anything else and we're having to make do on my salary at the moment so we're not exactly rolling in it.
We both agreed that as we are going to America for a holiday next October that we'd rather save some money and not buy stuff that will get used for a month then put in a cupboard never to be used again hence the £10 budget

I respect her if she's being serious, too many people go into debt for such a stupid reason.
If your budget is £10 so be it.
If I had a £10 choice I would choose a book token or a couple of bottles of wine or an iTunes token.
Christmas is for children, us adults should be happy with a small gift if that is all the family budget allows.

We don't want to go mad as we've had a lot of expense lately. I used to love Christmas but have gone of it in recent years due to the adverts etc starting in Oct! Looking forward to it getting exciting again now the little one has arrived.

If you didn't at the time of the birth then I would suggest a token of your love and affection that costs maybe a little (OK a lot) over £10 will give her a keepsake to treasure forever.
Tiffany have some small pieces in silver that aren't that costly but are beautiful and still under £100.

I can understand that but we have a budget and we're going to stick it. Thought it might be interesting to see what can be purchased for a tenner! Tiffany have some small pieces in silver that aren't that costly but are beautiful and still under £100.

For a tenner you're going to have to go with a gift that has meaning, or lots of little gifts that have a meaning and relevance to place's you've been, thing's you've done together.
I know it's soppy and romantic drivel, but you could collect and put together items in a nice (£10) box that make up 'the story so far' or as you've just had a baby, use some plaster of paris to take a baby footprint, and put that in, with the first baby grow and such like.
